Description : | Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM), also known as GA733-2 antigen, is a type â…transmembrane glycoprotein composed of an extracellular domain with two EGF-Like repeats and a cystenin-rich region, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. It modulates cell adhesion and proliferation. Its overexpression has been detected in many epithelial tumours and has been associated with high stage, high grade and a worse survival in some tumour types. EpCAM has been shown to function as a calcium-independent homophilic cell adhesion molecule that does not exhibit any obvious relationship to the four known cell adhesion molecule superfamilies. However, recent insights have revealed that EpCAM participates in not only cell adhesion, but also in proliferation, migration and differentiation of cells. In addition, recent study revealed that EpCAM is the Wnt-beta-catenin signaling target gene and may be used to facilitate prognosis. It has oncogenic potential and is activated by release of its intracellular domain, which can signal into the cell nucleus by engagement of elements of the wnt pathway. |

Q&As (7)
Ask a questionEpCAM is highly expressed in epithelial tissues and some cancer cells.
It has a controversial role in cell adhesion, possibly contributing to both cell-cell adhesion and anti-adhesive properties.
EpCAM primarily functions in cell signaling, proliferation, and migration.
It often has a pro-tumorigenic role, promoting cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.
EpCAM is used as a biomarker to detect and isolate circulating tumor cells.
Strategies include developing EpCAM-targeted therapies for cancer treatment.
Genetic alterations in EpCAM are linked to some hereditary cancer syndromes.
